Fund Drive Special: Exposing the FBI

Published: May 23, 2017, noon

Following Trump\u2019s unexpected firing of FBI director James Comey, there were cries from some quarters that the neutrality of the FBI must be respected and the agency not be politicized.\xa0 And yet, from its origins, the FBI has been a fundamentally political entity. The documentary 1971 looks at the FBI\u2019s campaign to destroy the left, known as COINTELPRO, and the remarkable action taken by a group of ordinary people that brought it to light.\nThe post Fund Drive Special: Exposing the FBI appeared first on KPFA.
